So, I’ve been in a conversation on Facebook with (amongst others) Jakob Flansberry, Finn Harwege and Edd Hawkes regarding crank length on a 19" trial uni and I ended up testing my 19" uni with 159mm M41 cranks. I would love to test it out some more, but I don’t really want to wreck these cranks coming from my brand new 24" M41 Muni for this test.
Therefore I’m looking for a solid (single hole) crank set of somewhere between 150mm & 160mm with ISIS mount. They can be new or 2nd handed, as long as they are reliable and not too expensive
So far the only fitting candidate that I’ve found is the Nimbus VCX at 150mm, but the german shop doesn’t have it in stock.
Are there any other brands / models which I could look for?
For experimentation purposes I’d suggest looking into ISIS BMX cranks if you don’t mind having a spider on there. You can find them pretty cheap since I think ISIS went out of style on bikes. 155 is a great size that is hard/impossible to find in a unicycle specific crank.
165mm might be too much, but 150mm would be great I guess.

That might not be a bad idea, but I would take off the spider with a grinder anyway, since it’s a perfect thing to grab shoe laces or pants during the ride
The Sinz are very affordable and lightweight but they are not the strongest for hard hits so they may not qualify for a trial uni.
The KH Moment will be indestructible. However, as trial unis are usually equipped in the 149/145mm range, I guess that any longer crank will do if it is just for the novelty of it
